Sorry about that. Budget is about 2k (new or used). I haven’t compared the 105 to the classe’s DAC yet so that should be interesting as well. Thx.
DAC Suggestions Please
I currently have two DACs in my system which are internal to other components. My front end is an OPPO 105 and my pre-amp is a Classe Sigma SSP. What recommendations do any of you have to improve my DAC performance. What price point should I be looking at to really improve everything. Thanks very much for any suggestions.

What's the rest of your system? Maybe money better spent elsewhere? I'd think $2k could get you a good improvement in a DAC. Two possible options, there's a used Metrum Hex DAC on eBay for $1700, or an Oppo Sonica DAC and have it modified by Ric Schultz at EVS for 700 bucks: http://tweakaudio.com/EVS-2/Oppo_Sonica_DAC_mods.html Best of luck. |
I'm a fan of the Schiit Multibit DACs. Read up on them, here, and elsewhere. +1 |
taylorro What sort of music media do you listen to. Redbook CD's 16/44 or 24/96, DXD downloads? Or DSD downloads? As this will make a difference to what sort of "conversion process" you'll be better off with to get the best out of that format. Cheers George |
